DESCRIPTION

TPicShow is an image slider control with 150 transitional effects in pure Delphi code. The major characteristics of TPicShow are:

TDBPicShow is the data-aware version of TPicShow with ability to load bitmap or jpeg images (natively) from a blob field.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR DELPHI 3.0 USERS: Two procedures in 'Graphics.pas' are missing a call to 'BitmapCanvasList.UnlockList'.
This bug will cause VCL graphics functions, which have not been called from the main thread, to hang. They cannot lock 'BitmapCanvasList' because the main thread never unlocks it. Because of this bug, running PicShow in threaded mode will lead your application to deadlock. For the bug's details and fix please visit: http://www.dataweb.nl/~r.p.sterkenburg/generated/entry0016.htm.
